MBK Entertainment (previously known as Core Contents Media) is a large entertainment company established by Kim Kwang Soo in 2007.
The company enjoyed early successes with acts like Seeya, Davichi, and T-ara. However, MBK has failed to become a consistant powerhouse idol churner like SM, JYP, or YG. While the latter companies have made blunders and gotten entangled in scandals and lost groups, they still manage to "create" new successful groups to replace old ones.
MBK not only has made numerous PR or management blunders, they have failed to produce idols to compete in the 3rd Generation of idol groups. In fact, CCM underwent a bankruptcy in 2014 and was bought out by MBK Co., Ltd. While MBK may stand for Music Beyond Korea, if Kim Kwang Soo doesn't pull it together they may not even release music in Korea for much longer.
Below are some examples of groups destroyed by poor management decisions.
